#Give2StAndrew this #GivingTuesday

Dear Friends of Saint Andrew Church,
 
"Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, For His mercy endures forever!"
- Psalm 135:1
 
As we approach Thanksgiving this week, I wanted to offer my sincere gratitude to each of you for your prayerful support of our growing parish.
 
Due to circumstances beyond our control, our church community was forced to leave our temporary church home in Port Washington in June 2022.  We were devastated and heartbroken but were convicted of the truth, God has not abandoned us.  Despite this difficult phase, through the prayers of Saint Andrew, more people who felt they had no spiritual home, joined our church community.  Despite our difficulties, our people have remained steadfast in their faith and committed to the very purpose of our church - to bring all people to Christ through the Orthodox Church.
 
This is a true testament to how our community continues to welcome back people who have unfortunately been jaded, hurt, and disconnected, from the Orthodox Christian Church.  It is also a testimony to how our parish continues to introduce people from all walks of life to the beauty of Orthodox Christianity.
 
My dear friends, this 'Giving Tuesday' on November 29th, our church will be launching a #GivingTuesday campaign, that will speak to our struggle over the past few months.  For the past several months, we have been going from location to location, seeking a place to worship on Sundays.  In light of this struggle, we are asking our friends, and well-wishers to #Give2StAndrew, so we can #Build4Christ!  Generous donations received this #GivingTuesday will go to fulfilling our dream of having our own place of worship.
 
Aside from your generous donation, we are humbly asking for all of our faithful members, friends, and well-wishers to help share about our Giving Tuesday campaign of our church.  Tell people how your church - Saint Andrew Malankara Orthodox Church - has positively impacted your life.  It may be our online Saul to Paul series during the peak of COVID, our Lenten Wednesdays, All Saints Day Celebrations, or our overall daily worship completely in English
 
Saint Andrew Malankara Orthodox Church has been doing great things.  With the prayerful and generous support of well-wishers like you, we can continue to do great things.  Please accept this invitation to share about the ministry of our church, YOUR church - Saint Andrew's Malankara Orthodox Church.  We are humbled to be used by the Lord to do His amazing work.
 
Of all the things we are thankful for this year, we are thankful for your continued prayers, and generous support!  On behalf of the God-loving people of Saint Andrew's Malankara Orthodox Church, I wish you a Blessed & Joyful Thanksgiving! 
 
In Christ,
Fr. Daniel (Dennis) Mathai
Pastor of Saint Andrew's Church
